The Crease Guard function minimizes creases as much as possible with a uniquely designed anti-crease system that is tailored to specific fabrics.

MIXED FABRICS - the water is gradually cooled throughout the final two rinses with no spinning and then a delicate spin assures the maximum relaxation of the fabrics.

DELICATE FABRICS – final two rinses with no spinning and then the fabrics are left in water until it is time to unload. When you are ready to unload, press the "Crease Guard" button – this will drain.

WOOLLENS/HAND WASH/SILK – after the final rinse the fabrics are left in water until it is time to unload and the button indicator blinking.

When you are ready to unload, press the "Crease Guard" button, this will drain and spin ready for emptying.

If you do not want to spin the clothes and activate drain only:

-Turn the programme selector to the "OFF" position;

-Select programme drain only ;

-Switch on the appliance again by pressing the "Start/Pause" button.

SPIN SPEED CONTROL

H

ROTATES IN BOTH DIRECTIONS

The spin cycle is very important to remove as much water as possible from the laundry without damaging the fabrics. You can adjust the spin speed of the machine to suit your needs. By adjusting the control, it is possible to reduce the maximum speed, and if you wish, the spin cycle can be cancelled altogether-position.

Note:

The machine is fitted with a special electronic device, which prevents the spin cycle should the load be unbalanced.

This reduces the noise and vibration in the machine and so prolongs the life of your machine.
